Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2908241A2] A processor includes an indicator configured to indicate a first mode or a second mode and a functional unit configured to perform computations with a full degree of accuracy when the indicator indicates the first mode and to perform computations with less than the full degree of accuracy when the indicator indicates the second mode.
